Islam is a way of life
Assalamau alaykum, may Allah (swt) be pleased with you.
"Dont judge Islam based on the actions of Muslims"
I have heard that, in different wordings, so many times! And I do not feel it's true. Even in the Prophet's time, peace be upon him, people were reverting to Islam based on his actions! Although there are some Muslims whom are not perfect, I feel that most do things which support how wonderful Islam is.
I, myself, began to LEARN based on the actions of such Muslims.
One prime example who made American News is Mr. Mohammad Sohail
Video here.
He is a Pakistani-American store owner, and in June of 2009, an African-American man tried to rob him. Mr. Sohail at first was aggressive, when the intruder was caught, he began to cry and say how hard his life was and he just wanted some money for food. Mr. Sohail GAVE the intruder $40 and bread. The intruder said he wanted to be a Muslim like Mr. Sohail and took his Shahaddah right there in the store, Subhan'Allah, Subhan'Allah.
Later, Mr. Sohail recieved many letters and even a letter and $50 from the man who tried to rob him! He signed the letter "Your Muslim Brother'' Subhan'Allah, only 1 example of how our actions affect Non-Muslims! Dont ever assume "Oh that Kaffir doesnt care what I do or say" Because that is a lie!
